[GRASS5] Re: [bug #4064] (grass) r.in.srtm: doesn't work, though it's a latlong WGS84 projection

Maciek,
(cc Frank)

I had the same problem with v.in.ogr today (using GDAL/OGR from CVS).
Frank, did anything in GDAL/OGR recently change which makes fail the
recognition of the GRASS location projection in r.in.gdal/v.in.ogr?
This used to work.
